[QUOTE="ksm, post: 713023, member: 12511"] I deal with the same things...and have withdrawn from church, at least 50% of the time. Last Sunday they had a "sending blessing" for the youth traveling to Denver for a week of service in the urban setting. My youngest Difficult Child had said she wanted to go, she had gone on a similar trip to Chicago several years ago. Then she changed her mind. Then she tested positive for meth. Again. I skipped church last week because I knew people would ask, where's A? Why isn't she going to Denver? I didn't want to say, because we couldn't afford a residential treatment center 4 hours a way, so we are doing an intensive outpatient treatment for her addiction to meth. Today the youth are on their way...and we are stuck at home. My husband and I were suppose to have been on vacation today, headed to Montana. Difficult Child would have then flown to Portland at the end of this week and spent a week with an uncle. That would have been week 2 of our vacation. Then, we would have met her in Portland, and driven back with her by way of the Redwood Forest, and and other National Parks on our bucket list. Week 3 of our vacation... It's like our life is on hold while she may or may not be getting her life straightened out. Ugghh. Ksm [/QUOTE]
